According to our understanding, the total volume of investment of New City Plaza hits 1.2 billion RMB and the area is 350 thousand square meters. It is the first "Shopping Mall" in Jiangsu.

Leading figure Zhu Xianguo of New City Plaza told the reporter that New City Plaza was a concept of "New City". According to his thought, in Longjiang commercial center, 300-500 employees will be added. Residents need a better leisure and consumption environment. The huge Shopping Mall incorporates supermarket, commercial walking street, special sales venue, dining, leisure shopping and plaza.

When the reporter had an interview with Zhu Xianguo, he said: "We will make money after ten years. We are developing the market and customers." On Christmas Eve of 2005, New City Plaza officially opened to public. Through one-year adjustment, the industrial structure is more and more rational, and the Plaza keeps the comfortable shopping environment.

According to the introduction by Zhu Xianguo, at present, most commercial booths in New City Plaza open to public without rents. 20%-25% of profits of commercial booths will be paid to New City Plaza. There is a largest parking lot in New City Plaza, including 1200 parking spaces. In the future, a three-dimensional parking lot will be set up and 2000 parking spaces will be added.

But there are many disadvantages of New City Plaza. In China, Shopping Mall must depend on its own advantages. Zhu Xianguo said: "Different from that in foreign countries, most Chinese people depend on bus. So the location of Shopping Mall is very important." A housing block in Olympic Center area plans to open regular buses to New City Plaza. If the government can open more bus routes, it is convenient to residents in the area.
